AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention is a method and sensor for measuring consumption in a supply network. The method helps to ensure accurate and continuous measurement of consumption and state properties over time, even if there are interruptions or other losses in the transmission of time stamps. The sensor is designed for local use and can be used to measure consumption in real-time, providing valuable information for managing the supply network.

Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, the energy consumption of the subassembly containing the sensor and the time stamp preparation means and / or the communication means is considerably lower than in previous embodiments which locally evaluate the data owing to the fact that energy-intensive computing power is dispensed with.

Embodiment Construction

[0056]Referring now to the figures of the drawings in detail and first, particularly to FIG. 1 thereof, there is shown a measurement data information network, for example within the scope of distributing consumables, for example gas, water, electricity, fuel or heat. The supply network contains a multiplicity of individual local arranged consumption meters 10 which may be assigned to different residential units of an apartment building, for example. The individual consumption meters 10, for example water meters, flow meters, heat meters, electricity meters or gas meters, are connected by radio (radio path 11) to a (stationary or mobile) data collector 3, which can act as the master or concentrator, via a primary communication path 5.

[0057]Each individual consumption meter 10 may be expediently provided with an associated ID (address), with the result that each individual consumption meter 10 can be directly addressed by the data collector 3 and the data present in the respective con...

Abstract

A method collects data via a sensor being part of a supply network which distributes a consumable. The sensor contains a measuring element which provides elementary measuring units, which correspond to a variable or a parameter, as raw measurement data, where consumption data are generated from the elementary measuring units. The sensor has a communication device and a storage device. To determine the measurement resolution of the sensor, the conditions for generating time stamps are determined using a correlation model. Time stamps of successive raw measurement data are generated in the sensor based on the correlation model, the time stamps are transmitted via a wired connection and / or via a radio path, with the result that the raw measurement data acquired by the measuring element are reconstructed and evaluated on the basis of the time stamps using the correlation model. The consumption data are transmitted in parallel with the time stamps.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the priority, under 35 U.S.C. § 119, of German application DE 10 2018 009 821.5, filed Dec. 14, 2018; the prior application is herewith incorporated by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONField of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates, on the one hand, to a method for collecting data according to the independent method claim, to a sensor according to the independent sensor claim, to a data collector according to the independent data collector claim and to a measurement data information network according to the independent network claim.[0003]Consumption meters are part of supply networks for distributing consumables, for example gas, water, heat or electricity, and are used to generate consumption data. Consumption data are calculated by a microprocessor in the meter on the basis of raw measurement data provided by a measuring element of a sensor and are transmitted to a data concentrator...
